1. _ Everyday Heroes
Jamie's a high school teacher
She wakes up every morning at the crack of dawn
And puts the coffee on
Gives her lectures, grades those papers
The Work ain't done when the last one's gone
She don't do it for the paycheck
Anything at all would pay the bills
Even on days her life's a train wreck
But she still loves those kids
Thank God for the everyday heroes
For all you've done and for all you do
Thank God for the everyday heroes
It's a better world because of you
Joe's a highway worker
I saw him today when I drove by and the sun was hot
100 degrees on that blacktop sweatin'
He's out there working just getting by
He breaks his back to keep his family fed
It's all that matters much to him
Tomorrow morning he'll roll out of bed
Do it all again
Thank God for the everyday heroes
For all you've done and for all you do
Thank God for the everyday heroes
It's a better world because of you
There ain't no hall of fame
Probably never know your name
They're everywhere around us
They're stories all the same
So here's to the cop that works the midnight beat
Here's to the maid who cleans the hotel sheets
Here's to the farmer harvestin' the fields
Here's to the trucking haulin' 18 wheels
Here's to the workers on the assembly line
The secretary, the firemen, and the men down in the mines
Here's to everyone who does their part
I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart
Thank God for the everyday heroes
For all you've done and for all you do
Thank God for the everyday heroes
It's a better world because of you
Thank God for the everyday heroes
For all you've done and for all you do
Thank God for the everyday heroes
It's a better world because of you

2. _ Somebody's Son
I was watching the news tonight
Anchorman said there was a fight
And a young man died from his wounds
They showed pictures of the battle
And I almost turned the channel
Like I always seem to do
Then it hit me like a freight train coming through
That's somebody's son,
Somebody's husband,
Somebody's everything,
Out there someone's coming undone
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
When every war has to be won
With somebodys son
I walked down the hall to check
On my youngest lying in bed
And I stood there watching him dream
I tried but I couldn't imagine how we would feel if something happened
And I didn't have him here with me
Then I cried for that dead boy and his family
He's somebody's son,
Somebody's husband,
Somebody's everything,
Out there someone's coming undone.
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
When every war has to be won
He's somebody's son
Somebody's son,
Somebody's husband,
Somebody's everything.
Out there someone's coming undone.
It made me wonder if anyone really wins
When every war has to be won
With somebody's son

3. _ Nothing Like You
I've seen the sunset from the top of a mountain,
And I've walked the streets of Kathmandu
I've seen a sky so full of stars, I couldn't count them
But I ain't never seen nothing like you
I've felt forgiveness looking out over the ocean
I've been lonely in a cheap motel
I've felt lovers gently brush against my sin
But I ain't never felt nothing like you
You, you're too beautiful for words,
You, move me so much it hurts,
Never had something I was so afraid to lose,
Never had nothing like you
I would give away all of my tomorrows
Let my soul turn black and blue
Just to spend one night lost in your arms
'Cause I ain't never had nothing like you
Never had nothing like you

4. _ Sometimes It's Summertime
Skimpy bikinis and bear skin
It's always good to see them out again
Cabin fever, gray skies
Six months of winter finally waved goodbye
Sometimes this world seems cold as ice
Sometimes it's summertime
All the sun's gonna do is shine
Where all your worries melt away
Like snowflakes on an August day
Right now life is fine
Sometimes it's summertime
Grab a cooler, a 12 pack
I'll rub some lotion up and down your back
Flip flop living, stress free
Nothing to do we got no where to be
Come on baby drift away with me
Sometimes it's summertime
All the sun's gonna do is shine
Where all your worries melt away
Like snowflakes on an August day
Right now life is fine
Sometimes it's summertime
Sometimes it's summertime
All the sun's gonna do is shine
All your worries melt away
Like snowflakes on an August day
Right now life is fine
Nothing but peace of mind
Leave all your cares behind
Sometimes it's summertime
Sometimes it's summertime

5. _ Moments That Matter
I used to think I was a bigshot
Thought I had it all but guess what
Can't measure life by the things you got
In the end it all ends up to nothing
I swear I missed so many birthdays
Valentines, hallowe'ens and anniversaries
Left me lonesome in the worst ways
But mister I learned something
[Chorus]
You can't buy back the moments that matter
You can't buy back the moments that matter
There's a big pot of gold at the top of the ladder
But you can't buy back the moments that matter
Gonna play some football in the backyard
Teach my nephew how to play the guitar
Call up some old friends and play some cards
Waste a few Saturday evenings
Gonna take my wife out dancing
Every now and then without her asking
Spin her around singing and laughing
There's memories we should be making
[Chorus]
All this talk about the good life
Makes me realize I got a great life
Gotta keep my priorities in sight
You just get one time around
[Chorus]
You can't buy back the moments that matter
You can't buy back the moments that matter
Years pass you buy and the days start to scatter
But you can't buy back the moments that matter

6. _ Just Drunk Enough
I knew it would happen someday
But I never thought that it'd be tonight
Then you walked into the bar with your new Mr. Right
With that big ol' chip on my shoulder
And Johnny Walker making me see red
I decided I'd walk right on over and pour him a beer
On his head
[Chorus]
And I know I'll regret this tomorrow
It's just another cross that I'll have to bare
I'm sober enough to know better
But I'm just drunk enough not to care
No, it's not my proudest moment
But when he swung at my face and just missed
I decided there and then I'd introduce his chin to my right fist
Then I tipped my hat to my ex-girlfriend
Said darlin? you sure look nice
For a low down cheatin', dead beatin', cold hearted witch
Who ruined my life
[Chorus]
Yeah I know I'll regret this tomorrow,
'Cause Mr. Right's finally comin' up for air
I'm sober enough to know better
But I'm just drunk enough not to care
I know I'll regret this tomorrow,
Instead of leavin' I sat back in my chair
I'm sober enough to know better
But I'm just drunk enough not to care
I'm just drunk enough not to care

7. _ Cheaper to Keep Her
Your down on your luck
You just lost your truck
You can't afford another beer
Your credit cards don't work
Whole world thinks you're a jerk
You wondering how you wound up here
[Choru
It woulda been cheaper to keep her around
It woulda been better to let her keep you down
Living with a crazy wife beats an empty bank account
It woulda been cheaper to keep her around
Now your sleeping on the couch at your best friends house watching Colombo
Eating cold pizza in your underwear
Just remember I told ya so
[Chorus]
So if you're thinking about saying adios
Well, take it from the fool who knows
She's gonna serve ya papers make ya pay through the nose
And when her lawyer gets through with
You you'll have to move to Mexico.
[Chorus]
It woulda been cheaper to keep her around

8. _ Let's Get Drunk and Fight
Let me pour you a tall one,
Come sit down next to me.
Baby you look so good,
In those faded jeans.
I've been stoned cold sober,
You've been cold as ice.
I got a good idea,
Let's get drunk and fight!
[Chorus]
Let's get drunk and fight,
Keep the neighbors up all night.
You can scream at me,
And I'll make you cry.
And when the morning comes,
We'll make some make-up love,
While we apologize.
But tonight, let's get drunk and fight!
Have another pina colada
And get good and torqued down
If you need a pinata
You can kick me around!
You can insult my mother
And I'll question your past.
It turns me on when you're pissed off
'Cause, you look hot when you're mad.
[Chorus: x2]
Baby tonight,
Let's get drunk and fight!

9. _ When We Make Love
Baby let your hair fall down around me
Let me feel your body close right next to me
There's something about the way you look into my eyes
That let's me know that you wear no disguise
When we make love
It feels brand new
And I can't imagine my life without you
The world stands still as we move
And I know that we're two of the lucky few
When we make love
Baby you broke the chains around this heart
You made this jaded man put down his guard
And I don't know all the words to say how I feel inside
Baby let me show you tonight
When we make love
It feels brand new
And I can't imagine my life without you
The world stands still as we move
And I know that we're two of the lucky few
When we make love
Baby hold on tight, don't ever let go
I wanna feel you in my arms and my soul
Baby, baby, baby
The world stands still as we move
And I know that we're two of the lucky few
And I know that we're two of the lucky few
When we make love

10. _ It Broke Off
When I was a kid I had it made in the shade
Couple girlfriends and a Chevrolet
Oh how I long for those days
When all I needed was a couple of bucks
Just enough to put some gas in my truck
Buy a six pack of beer and get a weird haircut
Well I used to have a handle on life
But it broke off
Well I used to have it all figured out
But now I'm lost
It used to be clear to me
Now everything looks so blurry
I used to have a handle on life
But it broke off
Well I grew up so they say
Got a real job and and IRA
A mortgage on this house
I can barely pay
A blackberry and a cellphone
I spend more time at work
Then I do at home
Somebody please tell me where I went wrong
Well I used to have a handle on life
But it broke off
Well I used to have it all figured out
But now I'm lost
It used to be clear to me
Now everything looks so blurry
I used to have a handle on life
But it broke off
I know nothing stays the same
But I feel like I'm dancing
Way too close to the flame
Well I used to have a handle on life
But it broke off
Well I used to have it all figured out
But now I'm lost
It used to be clear to me
Now everything looks so blurry
I used to have a handle on life
But it broke off
Yeah I used to have a handle on life
